Rune Haako is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe. Template:Spoiler

Advisor and legal counsel to Viceroy Nute Gunray, Rune Haako was pessimistic Neimoidian who wore a frilled attorney's cowl. In The Phantom Menace he was the only member of Gunray's inner circle who had encountered a Jedi Knight prior to the invasion of Naboo (and the fact that he walked with an obvious limp much of the time suggests the encounter was not a pleasant one).

He was captured by Queen Amidala and the Naboo Royal Security Force under Captain Panaka along with Viceroy Gunray following the defeat of the Trade Federation's droid army during the Battle of Naboo, and sent to Coruscant for trial. Like Gunray however, Haako was not convicted thanks to Darth Sidious' machinations. (This was revealed in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, although Rune did not appear in this film.)

Rune appeared in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, where he wore a heritage miter and once again served as Gunray's advisor and lieutenant, during the Viceroy's time in the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He went with Gunray to Mustafar, where he was slashed by Darth Vader along with the Trade Federation Viceroy and all the other Separatists.
